“The Bible did not arrive by fax from heaven. The Bible is the product of man, my dear. Not of God. The Bible did not fall magically from the clouds.

As if broken bones hurt more than the names we got called, and we got called them all. So we grew up believing no one would ever fall in love with us. That weâ€™d be lonely forever. That weâ€™d never meet someone to make us feel like the sun was something they built for us in their tool shed. So broken heart strings bled the blues as we tried to empty ourselves so we would feel nothing. Donâ€™t tell me that hurts less than a broken bone.”
“I like to be directed, but when I'm flying and I'm on fire, I don't want someone coming and getting in my way just because they feel like they need to.”
